Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an elastic molding which is attached to the upper edge, both side edges, and lower edge both end regions of a windshield to conceal them, and presses both ends in the longitudinal direction of the elastic molding from above. A pressing molding for concealing the both ends and the lower edge of the windshield, and a fixing tool for fixing the pressing molding to the vehicle body, wherein the elastic molding has an inner upper lip and an inner side fitted to the edge of the windshield. The present invention relates to a molding device for a windshield of an automobile, which has a lower lip and an outer upper lip and an outer lower lip which project on the opposite side of these lips.

Prior Art Molding devices of the above type for windshield or back windshield of motor vehicles are well known in the prior art.
This type of molding device is configured such that both ends in the longitudinal direction of the elastic molding are pressed by the pressing molding and are stored in a predetermined position. The elastic molding is made of an elastic material such as natural rubber or soft synthetic resin. Therefore, when the molding device is assembled to the vehicle body, the end portion of the elastic molding may be deformed or displaced from a predetermined shape due to a slight assembly error or dimensional error. If such a phenomenon occurs, a gap is created between the elastic molding and the press molding, and the appearance of the automobile deteriorates. In some cases, the end of the elastic molding may come off the edge of the windshield.

For this reason, conventionally, when the molding device is assembled, when the elastic molding is deformed or slipped off, adjustment work has been performed to correct it, but such additional work is very troublesome.

Therefore, it is conceivable to use a positioning member for preventing the deformation or displacement of the end portion of the elastic molding, but if such a member is provided, the number of parts of the molding device increases and the cost increases. In addition, the work of assembling the positioning member is required, which inevitably results in a problem that workability is significantly reduced.

The present invention was made based on the above-mentioned novel recognition, and its purpose is to prevent deformation of the end portion of the elastic molding without increasing the number of parts and lowering the workability of assembly. It is an object of the present invention to provide a molding device of the type described at the beginning that can prevent the problem that the sliding movement occurs.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a molding device of the type described at the beginning, in which a fixing tool supports the lower surface of the outer upper lip at the end of the elastic molding from below and presses the upper lip on the molding molding. It is proposed to provide a structure having a pressing portion that is brought into close contact with the outer lower lip of the end portion and presses the lower lip toward the edge of the window glass.

Embodiment Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, and the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks will be more specifically described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 are perspective views showing a back window glass 2 fixed to a rear portion of a vehicle body 1 of an automobile and a molding device 3 for the back window glass, and 4 is for a trunk room which is located further rearward than the back window glass 2. It shows a luggage door. FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion indicated by an arrow III in FIG. 2, and a part of the luggage door 4 is shown by a chain line for easy understanding of the drawing. 4 and 5 are shown in FIG.
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along line IV-IV and line VV.

The molding device 3 shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 is composed of an elastic molding 5 made of an elastic material such as natural rubber or a soft synthetic resin, and a material having a relatively high rigidity such as a synthetic resin or a metal harder than this. It has a presser molding 6 and a fixture 7 for fixing the presser molding 6 to the vehicle body 1. The back window glass 2 is fixed to the vehicle body 1 by an adhesive 8 applied on the periphery thereof. Reference numeral 9 is a dam member that blocks the flow of the adhesive 8 when the adhesive 8 is still fluid.

The back window glass 2 is provided with the elastic molding 5 on the periphery thereof.
And it is concealed by the presser foot molding 6. That is, the elastic molding 5 includes the upper edge 2a, the side edges 2b, and the lower edge 2 of the glass 2.
It is attached to both end regions 2c of d to hide them. At that time, the elastic molding 5 is, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG.
It has an inner upper lip 5a and an inner lower lip 5b fitted on the edges 2a, 2b, 2c of the window glass 2, and an outer upper lip 5d and an outer lower lip 5e protruding on the opposite side of these lips 5a, 5b. By fitting the inner upper lip 5a and the inner lower lip 5b on the edges 2a, 2b, 2c of the glass 2, the elastic molding 5 is attached to the edge of the window glass 2.

Further, the presser molding 6 is provided at both longitudinal end portions 5c of the elastic molding 5.
By pushing from above, the both ends 5c and the back window glass 2
It covers the lower edge 2d and hides these. At this time, the elastic molding 5 has the outer upper lip 5d except for both ends 5c.
And the outer lower lip 5e comes into close contact with the vehicle body portion 1a facing the edge of the back window glass 2 as shown in FIG.

Each end 6a of the presser molding 6 is fixed to the vehicle body 1 by the above-described fixing tool 7, but only one fixing tool 7 is shown in the drawing. The other fixture is also configured in exactly the same manner as the fixture 7 shown, although it is symmetrical. Fixture 7
As shown in FIG. 4, the leg portion 7a is fitted and fixed in the hole 10 formed in the back panel 1b which is a part of the vehicle body 1, and the hole 7b of the fixture 7 and the attachment hole of the presser molding 6 are attached. The screw 11 inserted in is screwed into the hole 7b, whereby the presser molding 6 is fixed to the vehicle body 1. Illustrated fixture 7
Is generally called a screw grommet, but it goes without saying that a fixing tool of another form may be used.

The fixing member 7 is provided with a pressing portion 7c, as clearly shown in FIG. 6, but before explaining the operation thereof, an example of the conventional molding device briefly described above and its drawbacks will be clarified. Leave.

As shown in FIG. 7, the conventional mall device has a fixture 107.
Since no pressing portion is provided in the fixing member 107, the fixing member 107 serves only to fix the presser molding 6 to the vehicle body 1. Only this point is different from the molding device 3 according to the present invention, and other parts are the same.

In this case, since the elastic molding 5 is made of a relatively soft elastic material, when the molding device is assembled to the vehicle body 1, the elastic molding 5 may be subject to an assembly error or a slight dimensional error of each member.
There is a risk that the end portion 5c of the above will deform or move away from the predetermined shape shown by the solid line in FIG. 7 as shown by the chain line.
The presser molding 6 having higher rigidity than the elastic molding 5 presses both end portions 5c of the elastic molding 5 from above and acts to prevent the deformation, but it is difficult to completely prevent the deformation only by this.

When the elastic molding 5 is deformed in this way, a gap is formed at a joint (a portion indicated by a symbol X in FIG. 3) between each end of the press molding 6 and the elastic molding 5, and the appearance of the automobile is damaged. The end 5c of the elastic molding 5 may come off the edge of the window glass 2. Therefore, in such a case, it is necessary to readjust the position of the elastic molding as described above, but such work is very troublesome. When the elastic molding 5 is formed into a linear shape by extrusion molding and is elastically deformed as shown in FIG.
Tries to return to a linear form due to its elasticity,
The aforementioned deformation or deviation is particularly likely to occur.

The present invention prevents such a problem by the pressing portion 7c. That is, FIGS. 3, 4, and 6
As is apparent from the figure, the tip of the pressing portion 7c of the fixture 7 is the lower surface of the end portion 5c of the elastic molding, that is, the outer upper lip 5 thereof.
The lower surface of d is supported from below, the upper lip 5d is pressed against the molding 6, and the pressing portion 7c is the elastic molding end 5c.
The lower lip 5e is pressed against the outer lower lip 5e toward the edge of the back window glass 2. This allows
The outer upper lip 5d of the end portion 5c of the elastic molding 5 is pressed by the pressing molding 6 and the pressing portion 7c while being sandwiched from above and below. Therefore, the end portion 5c of the elastic molding 5 is held in a predetermined shape and at a predetermined position, and is not deformed or moved in an undesired shape as shown by a chain line in FIG. Moreover, since the outer lower lip 5e is pressed by the pressing portion 7c, the end 5c of the elastic molding 5 is reliably prevented from coming off the edge of the back window glass 2.

In this way, both upper lips 5a and 5d are brought into close contact with the lower surface of the presser molding 6, and the mating portion X of the presser molding 6 and the elastic molding 5 is formed.
It is possible to prevent the inconvenience of forming a gap in (FIG. 3) and hold the elastic molding 5 at a predetermined position. On the side of the other end of the elastic molding 5 as well, the generation of a gap is prevented in the same manner by the pressing portion of another fixing tool (not shown). In this way the appearance of the car is kept beautiful.

Further, since the pressing portion 7c for positioning the elastic molding end 5c is formed on the fixture 7 for fixing the pressing molding 6 to the vehicle body, an independent positioning member is not required.
As a result, not only the increase in the number of parts can be prevented, but also the work for assembling the positioning member is unnecessary, and the workability can be prevented from being lowered. The elastic molding 5 can be prevented from being deformed or displaced only by performing the same assembly work as that of the conventional molding device shown in FIG. Moreover, it is not necessary to process the elastic molding into a special shape, and the elastic molding simply cut into a predetermined length can be used as it is, and the cost increase can be prevented.

The present invention is not limited to a back window glass molding device,
Obviously, it can also be applied to a molding device for windshields.

Advantageous Effects of Invention According to the present invention, it is possible to eliminate a gap between the elastic molding and the press molding molding, and to prevent the end of the elastic molding from coming off the edge of the window glass with a simple structure. The appearance can be kept beautiful. Moreover, since a fixture for fixing the presser molding originally required for the molding device is used to prevent the occurrence of a gap and the detachment of the elastic molding, the cost of the device is suppressed and the workability of assembling each element of the device is reduced. You can prevent the malfunction. Further, it is not necessary to process the elastic molding into a special shape, which can prevent an increase in cost.
